I've tested this and it fixes the issue, and resolves this bug:
https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10649
We may be able to stream this without blocking using
Queue.get_nowait(). This could solve the looping issue as well, as
you'd be looping over stdout.readline and placing that in the queue,
rather than looping over each character.
